[Here is Japan-- maybe a little tired, but he certainly appears better than the last couple of times you might have seen him. From the background, you might guess he's inside a house somewhere-- that's right. Anyone staying with him or knowing where he's living in Dissimulo can drop in with an action tag, but anyway, he just has a quick message

Map program, hunh... When'd you get the idea for this?

[asideglance]

A while back, perhaps around when Karkat first arrived, I realized that it may be a useful tool for new arrivals. I have recently been thinking it may be of some use if we will be spread out like this...

[So people in Discedo don't need escorts, and things like that. Maybe. He figures it can't hurt!]

[postasskicking]

Could be useful.

[...]

Take it you're doin' alright.

[asideglance]

...

[lowering the hand he had curled near his chin]

Yes. It is always fine when I am busy like this. [Working on Marco's jacket, doing this program... There was plenty to think about but keeping himself busy helps.]

And Seifer?

[postasskicking]

When have I never been? You think you'll be ready to leave for Accido soon?

[asideglance]

[He almost smiles at that, but oh Accido...]

I will be ready to leave whenever Seifer is.

[postasskicking]

Alright. Need to take care of a few things first, but after that- ...Should be able to leave by the end of the week.

[A pause and then suddenly:]

Tch. Sorry this's been so long coming.

[He's well aware all the ridiculous side things he does like the Watch and kidnapping picking up strangers has been holding them back.]

[asideglance]

That will be just fine.

[He's quiet. As much as he wanted to go right when it happened, this... was probably for the best. It's dangerous, isn't it? He's worried what will happen, too.]

To be quite honest, I believe I have needed this time. [To calm down from thoughts. Seeing whatever was left in an emotional state probably wouldn't have been good...]

[postasskicking]

[Seifer knows it's dangerous, that there's the chance this could damage him for life or kill him outright. He just doesn't care. What's the point in living a life where you hide from things. He should probably tell Japan not to come, but he knows why Japan wants to.]

...Heh. Dunno if that's a good thing or a bad thing. Alright. If you have anything to take care of before then I'd do it now.

[After all you never know what you're getting into when you follow him.]

[asideglance]

[And Japan would tell Seifer he shouldn't go if he didn't already know the other goes after what his sight's set on anyway. See for himself or something... He's not sure but hey if they're going together, they're going together.

He just bows his head a bit in a tiny nod.]

Understood. ...Will we be walking? [He's sort of afraid to ask Shiki for her motorcycle again... She keeps giving him these weird stares like he's an alien or something HE DOES NOT GET IT...]

[postasskicking]

Dunno.

[He'd rather walk it, but... the time that'd take he doesn't want to be away that long.]

I'll see what I can pull up.

[asideglance]

Very well. Ah, whatever you manage is fine.

[postasskicking]

You just get more awkward don't you. I'd think about your loose ends Japan.

[He just hangs up l-lol prison camp was not good for him no]

[asideglance]

...

[Lmfao oh sob... He had actually been considering asking Seifer about what happened there, since he found the lack of information a bit odd... And Seifer has seemed so upset recently. He wasn't sure if he was really okay.

But well hanging up decides it for him, he shouldn't ask. So he just frowns at those words and goes back to making himself busy.]

[postasskicking]

[Lawlz he is really obvious isn't he even Kresnik noticed, hideous. LATER JAPAN you can ask him maybe or something. Or go grill Marco fff.]

[asideglance]

[MAYBE WHEN THEY LEAVE OR SOMETHING yes... LMFAO even Kresnik noticed. You're slipping Seifer... Okay yes making a program woo]
